These function help me make sure that I'm properly going through both files. The
command ‘oni-org-run-through-inbox’ will first dump any items in the tickler
file that are relevant for today and then it goes through each item in my inbox
and asks me to take an action on them.
This helps me both go through my inbox more easily, but also helps me keep track
of the items in my tickler file, which has been something I keep forgetting to
look at.
The ‘oni-org-dump-tickler’ command should be idempotent, so calling it multiple
times per day shouldn't mess with the different dates in the file. If it
discovers that the current day isn't the same as today it keeps going through
the tickler file, dumping any tasks it finds into the inbox, until it finds the
right day number. It's not aware of any of the months, so it'll happily move to
the next month if your tickler file is in the wrong state. Also if your tickler
file hasn't been updated in more than a month it also doesn't understand that it
needs to keep going and will keep presenting you with old tasks.
It's a fun idea, but practically it makes things a lot slower in certain
situations and by default it has some weird concepts of what safe or pure
functions are.
When I write a commit message there is always the default comment that lists
which files are to be committed, which files aren't staged for commit, and which
files are just entirely unknown to git at the moment. By default with
‘refill-mode’ turned on (which I have to make it easier to modify paragraphs
after I've written them) this comment usually gets all garbled by the refill
command.
This bit of code prevents the comment from being filled initially.
I frequently want to just open the URL of a package to see the readme and
possibly some screenshots. There doesn't appeart to be a built-in keybinding for
that.
Automatically generated colors for todo keywords and tags using an MD5 hash will
produce a completely random color, frequently not fitting well at all within my
chosen color theme. Using the LCh color space and keeping the L(uminance) and
C(hroma) constant will produce colors that fit together much metter, and the
values have been picked to work well with ‘yoshi-theme’.
This change was inspired by “Arbitrary Beautiful Colors”[1].

- ‘oni-org-increment-property’: A generic command that increments a numeric org
property
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-add-note’: A command that adds a note to the org item
logbook that states a pomodoro was completed.
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-times’: A function that parses an org item logbook to figure
out at what times a pomodoro had been completed for that particular task.
- ‘oni-org-pomodoro-times-for-date’: A function that finds the times a pomodoro
has been marked as completed for a specified date.
- ‘oni-org-archive-old-tasks’: Unrelated to the other functions, just a command
that archives all of the tasks that have been closed in the previous month.

When I delete a message I don't want it to still be highlighted as a message for
me. The fact that I marked it for deletion is more important than that it's
addressed to me directly.
This is meant to be used as a daily overview of the Pomodoro's that I've gone
through during the day. Should be put in my journal. For that reason, and
because I haven't figured out how to make it idempotent on days that aren't
today, I've added an exclusion of ‘journal.org’ to the
‘oni-org-update-all-dblocks-live’ function.
This commit fixes the issue that project tasks found in the archive of the org
file can't be accessed through the link that's been generated. This fixes that.
I don't like that this global status thing shows up everywhere on the mode line,
which is already quite full with minor modes and the like. This way it's only
ever in one place.
